Features
The features that matter here.
Documented capabilities, each explained on its own page.
- BILL OSSKUs, barcodes and labelsA product gets an SKU the moment it is created, and a barcode if you ask. Sizes and colours become real variants, each with its own code, price and stock.
- BILL OSInventory and stockEvery change to stock, whether a sale, a return, a delivery or a count, goes through one ledger. That is why the number on the screen can be trusted at closing time.
- BILL OSBilling and checkoutEvery step a cashier repeats has a key, so a sale can go from customer to receipt without touching the mouse, even with a queue at the counter.
Hardware and setup
What you will need.
One computer that runs the system, counters on the same network, scanners, receipt and label printers.
